Last night I was driving down 436 in Orlando to get to Titan Motorsports to meet up with Davew and Cowboy...An older Porsche Turbo with a wide body and pop up headlights drove up next to me and heard my turbo...He decided to race me...I really did not want to only because my car is not tuned, and I cannot hold boost for too long as my car will run a bit lean...So, I decided to let him know I had some power...I just kicked it a little while he was trying to pull away, and I caught right up to him...easily. Each time he downshifted and took off I just kept up with him to let him know he could not pull away...He finally realized he could not beat me, and turned off on Forsythe from University Blvd...

The Pauter rods are in...Beauts!!! Extremely heavy duty, excellence in craftmanship and quality. I took pics and will post them up. I also got in the ARP Head Studs in as well. All is in now for the completion of the engine build... I will do the swap after the Injection mod is installed, the second fuel system is completed, the Split Second is installed and tuned on the stock engine. I want to see how far the stock engine will go. I plan to dyno it for posterity as well. After that, the swap and serious boost and power come. 

Right now, the car is at Ultimate Audio getting the gauge pod done, the Bel radar/laser detector installed, and the door pods redone...I decided I did not like the impracticality of the 6.5 speakers sticking out so far...They actually started hurting my leg as they were in the way for my leg to rest near the door while driving.

Lots to do...
